Master-Detail Forms with read-only data in Master

I have a Master-Detail form created in Portal in which the master has fields that have select access (this has corporate bio/demo data) with the detail section having full access (local data).
When I go to create the form, it will not compile since it generate a DELETE code on master records.
The view I have has a master corporate record with people in depts adding detail records.
I am running Portal 3.0.9.

Hi,
This is a bug. The only workaround would be is to write your own custom event and write your own code to do all that is done in onsave.
Thanks,

Tabular Form Read Only Date Picker

Hello,
I have two or three Items with date pickers and do not want to implement
this code because it will be too many buttons on my form. I need to clear one item
at a time when the datepicker is readonly but, in a tabular form.
function f_clear_items()
    {$x('P1_ITEMA').value = ''};
    {$x('P1_ITEMB').value = ''};
    }Then once I create a url button and pass this function I can clear the datepicker's. But, I
was wondering is there a cleaner way to this.
I have other items on the page that are named the same but, in different tables. I only want
to clear each date picker item at a time. This code works fine for a regular form.
-Element Post Element Text for the Item to Clear
a href="javascript:setValue('P1_ITEMA','');">Clear Date</aThere is a thread named 'How to clear a read only page Item...?' that states how this code works but, does not
work for a tabular form in a Master Detail page. There is a link on side the Date Picker to clear item specified but, in a tabular form Item, there is no Element tab, any ideas on how to clear a readonly date picker item using a tabular form
and not using a button for each item, thanks in advance. I am using Application Express 3.2.0.00.27.

Dan,
I totally understand your point of view. So, this tabular form aspect was not tested once the Clear Date link was discovered to clear a Read Only date field. Yes, using a button to clear a date is great but, I do not want to clear every date or specified item with the click of one button for this application. It is very useful but, not for my needs at the moment.
Basically, if a date is selected and it needs to be cleared out you can just delete the value. But, if the date is readonly you can not clear/delete the date value unless you have the Clearing functionality for a particular item using the datepicker. It may not be worth the trouble Dan like you state by adding this extra code to the calender. If an invalid date is entered an error will appear anyway.
Thanks alot Dan for expanding my mind and showing me some JQuery and providing me with this link to do some further research if needed, thanks again.

Master Detail Form with Report - Referring a column in another table

I have master detail form with a report option. The master table has a column that also references a look up table.
When the report is displayed the lookup column id is displayed. Rather I want to get the look-up value from a lookup table
and display in the report.
When I see the report region Query definition , it just has the columns to add/remove only from the master table.
Could you pls help me with this regard.
Eg :
Dept Table
dept_id
dept_name
location_id
Employee Table
employee_id
employee_name
dept_id
location
location_id_id
location_name
Master is Dept, Detail is dept and lookup table is location.

Simply add the lookup table to the FROM clause and join its PK with the FK in the master table in your query. That's basic SQL, and you definitely must get a good grasp of SQL to do more than very basic work in APEX.
For a good example, please see http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E10513_01/doc/appdev.310/e10498/build_app.htm#BCEBJJGB
While you're at it, read and implement the tasks outlined in the 2 Day + Application Express Developer's Guide - http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E10513_01/doc/appdev.310/e10498/toc.htm. After that, read the "Oracle Application Express 3.0-- Building a Functional Application" OBE in http://www.oracle.com/technology/obe/apex/obe30/apexdev30.htm - great stuff.

How to make form field read only for users with certain permissions

We need to make two form fields read only for users with certain permissions. Kindly guide me on how to do this in Infopath. I searched and there is an option to disable to the column, but no option to select user permissions.
Please give your suggestion on this.
thanks.

Hi,
See the link below:
http://info.akgroup.com/blog-0/bid/69277/InfoPath-Restrict-visibility-to-users-in-a-SharePoint-Group
Here you can add the fomatting action on the field to disable the field if those users belong to certain Sharepoint group (does not matter the permission levels though). Hope it helps.

XML Forms with Expiring Message Date

Hi,
I need to create a XML form with Expiring Message Date i.e the messages should not be visible in the iview after entered expiring date. Kindly let me know how can I achieve this.
Thanks & Regards,
Ravi

Hello Ravi
This can be achieved through the Time-based Publishing service provided by SAP. To make sure the service is active for your repository, go to System Administration > System Configuration > Knowledge Management > Content Management > Repository Managers > CM Repository (if that's the kind of repository you're working in). Then select your repository and make sure that 'tbp' is in the list of Repository Services assigned. If not, assign that service and restart the portal.
Then, within KM Content, enter the Details menu of the folder within that repository for which you'd like this service activated, then go to Settings > Lifetime and click the 'Enable Time-Dependent Publishing' button. This will activate the service for that folder.
Then in your XML form, you can provide the Lifetime properties "Valid From" and/or "Valid To" to specify when a message should be active, and when it should expire. At that point, anyone who has read access to that folder would only see the messages that are within these active dates.
Hope this helps! For more information, see SAP's <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/e8/a9a76828b8dc469969ff450ec81ced/frameset.htm">Lifetime of Documents</a> documentation.

Form in read only mode

Hi,
I am a beginner in Hyperion. I created one sample form using custom dimension, but i cant able to input the values to the cell. Its in read only mode.
Thanks,
PC

Do you have security on any dimensions? If so and you do not have write access to specific members this will make the form read-only.
Make sure the intersections you are working with are level 0 data or if you are attempting to write to upper level members you will need to make the version a Top Down rather than Bottom Up.
If the version you are using has process management enabled then you will need to start the planning cycle using Workflow/Manage Process and select the scenario/version combination -- administrators can write regardless of it being started.
If your members are in planning however have not been sent to Essbase you will also find the form is read-only. You can do a Manage Database and Refresh to ensure your planning members exist in Essbase also.
Good Luck,
John

Access denied to a READ-ONLY data source

Post Author: covey9257
CA Forum: Data Connectivity and SQL
I'm using Crystal 10 sevice pack 6. My report is using an ODBC connection to a PSql 9.5 stored procedure. The stored procedure creates a temp table and inserts records from 3 different ticket tables. It has one parameter in it that selects which location to load the table with. My report works fine as long as I don't try to put any of the fields from the temp table on the report. If I do, then I get the following error.
Failed to open a rowset. Details: 42000:[Pervasive][ODBC Client Interface][LNA][Pervasive][ODBC Engine Interface][Data Record Manager][SPEng][Pervasive][ODBC Engine Interface]Access denied to a READ-ONLY data source.
I found that this was an issue in Crystal 9.0, but nothing with cr 10.
Does anyone know of a work around or fix for this scenario??
Thanks - Cathy

Thanks for the quick reply Don.
If you have the option that Pervasive uses to not use the exclusive lock on the DB try adding it to the SQLExpression function in CR.
I am not sure how to accomplish this. I've done some quick searching but cannot come up with SQL that indicates locking unless I am using some kind of language like VB or C#.
Here is my Command Object statement
INSERT INTO RASAPSign
(sVendNo, sChqNo, dtDateSigned)
VALUES
('{?VendNum}', '{?ChqNum}', CURDATE());
SELECT sVendNo, sChqNo, dtDateSigned
FROM RASAPSign
WHERE sVendNo = '{?VendNum}' and sChqNo = '{?ChqNum}'
Can you give me an idea of what to change? Or at least what terminology to search for?
I tried this option with BEGIN and END
BEGIN
INSERT INTO RASAPSign
(sVendNo, sChqNo, dtDateSigned)
VALUES
('{?VendNum}', '{?ChqNum}', CURDATE());
END
SELECT sVendNo, sChqNo, dtDateSigned
FROM RASAPSign
WHERE sVendNo = '{?VendNum}' and sChqNo = '{?ChqNum}'
But I get a syntax error.
Thanks, rasinc

Saving a reader extended PDF form as read-only

Before posting this, I've searched for hours in the forums and the internet on how to accomplish this but I just can't find the solution.
I've created a simple form in Acrobat and saved it with reader extended attributes so it can be saved by my colleagues in Adobe Reader once filled in. The problem now is they need to send these out to customers but in an unfillable state. I'm not sure if this is possible but I'm hoping for a simple solution if anyone could help me out, thanks.

Create a button somewhere on the form and add the following to the Mouse Up event:
// Set these fields to read-only
getField("Text1").readonly = true;
getField("Text2").readonly = true;
getField("Check Box1").readonly = true;
// continue for any other fields
// Hide this button
event.target.display = display.hidden;
Only use the actual field names that you're using in your form. The users should be sure to save to a new file, and I would suggest that they set the blank form to read-only via the file system so they don't accidentally overwrite it.

DI API - accessing objects with Read only permissions

Scenario: I have setup a user in B1 with "Read Only permissions" on the Business Partner. When I log into the DI API as this user and try instantiating the BP object, I get a message "Loged on user does not have permissions".
Why am I getting this? Shouldnt I be able to instantiate the object and read the property values. i understand that I cannot Add or Update because of read only permissions.
Is there a way we can retreive values for users using the DI API or should the best option be to write a SQL statement.
Thanks,
Gopal

Requiring the user to have full authorization to instantiate an object is a serious limitation for the DI API. It makes it virtually useless. After all it is supposed to be OOP and all the trimmings isnt it? It also takes a lot of control away from the user.
+1
Hi,
I have confirmation from B1 product definition, the DI API access for objects with Read only permissions will not be included in the 2007A version. It will be considered for the following version after 2007A.
There is a chapter called "Authorization Checks" in the SDK Help file specifying:
"SAP Business One performs authorization checks for the business objects and the infrastructure and meta data objects. If a user does not have full authorization to access the objects in SAP Business One, the user will not have permission to access the data belonging to the business objects using the DI API."

Backing up database with read-only tablespaces

I am trying to develop a script that will dynamically build RMAN scripts for backing up
a database with read-only tablespaces. The application running on this database creates
new tablespaces in read-write mode on weekly basis, populates them, and then puts them in read-only mode. So I need to backup all read-write tablespaces plus take backup of all read-only tablespaces once. The problem is that the application also includes a process that puts a tablespace back into read-write mode, updates it, and puts it back into read-write mode. So I need to be able to access "a history" of the tablespace - when was it put into read-only mode - to compare it with a history of backups. While history of backups is available in RMAN views, I couldn't find any way to extract tablspaces
history.
There should be RMAN command to the effect
"backup all read-write tablespaces and read-only tablespaces if they have not been backed up at least once since becoming read-only".
Regards,
Sev

just rsync the files to a compressed Zpool. do this using shadow migration, and you only loose access to the data for a few seconds.
1) make new dataset with compression
2) enable shadow migration between the new and old
3) change the database to use the new location
4) watch as data is automatically copied and compressed :-)
the the down side, you need extra space to pull the off.

Forms going read-only in Workbench

Has anyone else had a problem with forms going read-only unexpectedly in Workbench ES? With no one else logged-in to the server, I'm experiencing intermittent errors where the current form I am working on suddenly thinks it is a read-only document and refuses to allow me to save it back into the repository.
Any suggestions as to how to resolve this would be appreciated.

Try to create a new connection from Workbench to the server and give it another name.
This might solve your problem.

Caching read-only data in a weblogic cluster: Need Help

Hello,
I'm working on the development of a web site that will be based on a weblogic cluster spread across several weblogic instances running on several unix boxes.
To avoid frequent hits to the database, I would like hold a huge amount of data in the application's in-memory cache. The idea is to query the database at startup and store the results in memory for the life of the JVM.
I have three questions around this:
1. Is it advisable to store this data in the form of read-only entity beans?
2. If not, what other options do I have?
3. In some rare cases, a back-end script might change (and commit) data contained in one or two of these 64000 records. What is the best way of propagating these data changes across the cluster?
Any help in this regard would be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Dipak Jha

Could somebody please guide me on this?

Textarea with Read Only Condition Type

A have a textarea (database field with Varchar2(4000) with the Read Only Condition Type set to Request != Expression 1. Works fine, except that data presented as a long 1 line text (like a Displayed text) when condition meet (no vertical scrollbar).
Am i missing some additional settings.

the easiest way to get the read-only version of your textarea item to appear more like your read/write version is to add some style specifications into the "Read Only Element Table Cell(s) Attributes" field that's right below where you specified your read-only conditions ("Expression 1" and "Expresssion 2"). as the name suggests, values entered into that field end up in the table data tag for the cell in which your read-only content is placed. added style specifications for height and width would help you control how the text is spread across your page. you can/should also consider using background and color style attributes to color the table cell the way we're used to seeing read-only data ("grayed out"). so though my colors are way off, a string like this...
style="width:16px;height:30px;background:#C5D5C5;color:666666;font-weight:bold;font-size:12pt"
...in that "Read Only Element Table Cell(s) Attributes" field would format your read-only data closer to what you're going for. at the least, it'd give you an idea for the type of control you have.
for extremists, there's also another approach: if you want absolute and total control over the way your textarea item's data is displayed, you could display your item's data in an HTML region instead of as the item directly. for instance, you mentioned you liked that scroll bar. you could achieve the scroll bar by defining your table, the scroll bar class, and table cell in an HTML region. say we saved your textarea item's data to a hidden item called P1_MY_TEXTAREAS_DATA. i'm pretty sure this html would let you show that data in that scrollable non-updatable format you're shootin' for...
<style type="text/css">
.scrollarea{
font-size: 10pt;height:250px;width:100%;text-align:left;
background-color:#ffffff;color:black;padding:0px 0px 0px 0px;margin:0px;overflow: auto;
float:left;}
</style>
<div class="scrollarea">
<table summary="" width="100%"><tr>
<td style="width:16px;height:300px;border:4px;margin-left:4px;margin-right:9px">
&P1_MY_TEXTAREAS_DATA
</td></tr></table><div>
...see? by defining your own table, you get the easy opportunity to wrap it in those div tags that call the scrollarea class. also note that i just referenced the content of your textarea item with that ampersand syntax (&P1_MY_TEXTAREAS_DATA). you could, of course, keep things cleaner by defining your scrollarea class in a css, but that's your call.
hope this helps,
raj

Editable and Read-Only Date Picker have different display formats -- Bug?

Hi all,
This is a follow on to a previous posting about getting a Date Picker field to display read-only (Date Picker and Read-Only Condition works on LAST state of element
Now past that hurdle, I have noticed something about the date picker field when it is displays read-only. Namely, the date format is not the format selected, nor does the read-only date format comply with the format mask in the source section.
I've modified my small test app to work as intended in order to demonstrate this feature. I also opened it up so everyone can see it <blush>. You can find it here: http://htmldb.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=42513: Please navigate to the Update Project tab.
When a project in Program One through Four is selected (which has a Spec Committed date), the date is displayed DD-MON-YY format. When a project the other Programs (which do not have Spec Committed dates at the time of this writing) are selected, and a date value selected with the date picker, the date is displayed in the anticipated DD-MON-YYYY format.
Anyone else notice this, or have I just missed something obvious?
Thanks,
Petie

I'm not sure why this happens but to work around it I added this before header process code to the page:
execute immediate 'alter session set nls_date_format = ''DD-MON-YYYY''';
